" My dear as it seems we hit it hard. You remember that fire plant we found near volcano a few years ago?" She saw him nodding as she continued. " The floor of our cave is warm. Your duty is to search for it in caves. If we find it we could send it to the palace for the Kings medicine. You remember that doctor of his was devastated after finding out that those plants disappeared. Someone leaked the information that the plant has healing abilities and someone stole it. If we could find the plant and secretly send to the King, maybe he could heal faster. The kingdom is in trouble without him. "He nodded and sighed. " Our king is a benevolent ruler. He doesn"t even want to kill his enemies. Unfortunately, there are so many that are trying to harm him...sigh. It is good he gave us this place. We drew lately too much attention from those n.o.bles. To make a report that this is a dangerous place for years only to help us get here and hide from those eyes... we definitely need to be thankful to him. If we could find that plant, that would indeed be the way to show our sincerity to him. I will check my journals and see how that plant looks like and will start searching for it. "She hugged him while they looked at busy villagers at their field. They knew they couldn"t help them, so it is maybe better to get out the way. They felt sorry so he helped her preparing simple dishes for their return. At least that much they could do for their people. Right?!When villagers saw they got busy for their own good, they felt they were the luckiest people. They hurriedly sent a few young people to help them in preparations while they continued to work with even more fire.
In the evening most of the fields were done and only couple fields were left for the next day. Lord and Lady Williams shook their head as they saw tiered but enthusiastic people arriving back home. Everyone had a smile on their face. They all stood in front of the two and suddenly they all kneeled down. Even children did that with respect written on their face. The two were astounded and perplexed. " Please stand up. What are you doing? You all are tired enough from work on the field. We are all one family. Please don"t act like strangers.

But villagers stubbornly still kneeled. " We are grateful to the King for sending such good people to our side. We all know what is going on in our country. At first, we were afraid that you two were just pretending, but now we are completely sure we can trust you. From today on your family is officially our master and mistress and no one else can ever be again."They all stood up and gave a deep bow to both of them and then as nothing special happened went to prepared tables to eat. The two people looked at each other and started laughing. " Aren"t they cute? " Her question made her husband laugh even louder. " They are indeed..."
When the villagers heard their words they at first went silent for a moment and suddenly everyone started laughing and as the two n.o.bles joined them on the same table, their laugh, talk, and music echoed in the surrounding. Next day everyone woke up early to finish last few plots and in same time Lord Williams poked his sons face in delight. " His skin is so soft and puffy. I just can"t stop touching him."
Lady Williams sighed while she prepared for the new day. " Stop poking his face. He is going to end up having hole if you continue. Come, stand up and put your clothes on. In s time for breakfast. " She quickly took her son away from his fingers, but didn"t succeed walk away fast as the man grabbed her and pulled her softly back into warm bed." You little fool. Where do you run? We can stay as long we want in bed and no one is pus.h.i.+ng us out of it. When the fields are done they will prepare the vegetables for winter. Do you plan to be bothersome and hinder them? Let"s just enjoy some laziness. Soon we will start building the cave city. At that time we might not have so much time for each other."
She froze for a moment but then with a sigh had to admit that his words make sense. She slowly put the baby boy on the bed between both of them and as they talked about their future they slowly nodded off and fell asleep again. As the sun went up high in the sky the two people and the baby slept blissfully. When the helpers came to their house and saw a closed door at first they wanted to knock but then they choose to let them rest. They informed the rest of the village and the daily life became just a bit less noisy.
When those villagers came back from the fields and found out that the two still didn"t leave the house they sighed in relief. After all, no matter how much they want them to be helpful, on end those two people have to realize earlier or later that they are n.o.bles, not any more commoners. They spoke to elders and made them talk to the two. It is about time they realize that its not only their right, but it is also as well their obligation to rule and plan for their future. Not go around and do things they should give to someone else.
In early afternoon Lord Williams woke up almost simultaneously with his wife and when he saw dazedly trough the window at low lying sun, he realized that they slept over almost the whole day. He looked at his wife apologetically but met her smiling eyes. "As it seems we were quite tired. Even this little child slept sweetly, without waking up. Could you believe it?" She quickly stood up and changed babies cloth diapers. "Luckily I fed him and put clean diapers before we fell asleep."
The boy was always the quiet one and now since he grew up and started walking she put diapers only when he goes to sleep. She saw diapers being clean and sighed. She put him on the small potty they made before and went to the kitchen to prepare food for three of them. Next day they woke up timely and heard people talking already in the early morning. They looked at each other and went out to be met with strange occurrence...
